    Ep 173 You’re Not the Imposter: How Systems (Not Women) Are the Problem with Becky Mollenkamp

    In this episode of I'm Speaking...with Elizabeth West I sit down with Becky Mollenkamp — feminist business coach, journalist and podcast host — for a conversation that challenges everything we've been told about why women struggle in business. Spoiler: it's not you. It never was. In this episode we talk about: Why imposter syndrome is a systems problem not a personal failingHow patriarchy and systemic racism create outsized confidence in some and self-doubt in othersThe journey from service provider to CEO — and what that transition really requiresBuilding a business that aligns with your values even within broken systemsWhy women and marginalized groups face penalties that white men simply don'tThis conversation will make you think differently about your own confidence, your business and the systems you're navigating every day. 💛 Connect with Becky Mollenkamp:Website 💛 Work with Elizabeth: 🎧📚 If this conversation resonated with you, my upcoming audiobook, From Selfless to Self-Love: A Guide for High Achieving Introverts to Go From Depleted to Dynamic, explores many of these themes even deeper — including self-worth, burnout, over giving, boundaries, and learning how to stop abandoning yourself in the process of trying to do everything for everyone else.

    The New R&R (Rest + Recharge)

    This episode is a re-release — brought back because this message is timeless and honestly? I needed to hear it again myself. In this episode of I'm Speaking...with Elizabeth West we're talking about a new kind of R&R — not rest and relaxation, but rest and recharge. For women who feel everything deeply — introverts, empaths and highly sensitive people — rest isn't laziness. It's maintenance. It's necessary. And it's something most of us have been conditioned to feel guilty about. In this episode we talk about: Why sensitive women need rest differently than othersThe physical and mental toll of overworkingHow your energy affects everything — including who says yes to youWhy January is a stability month not a "new you" monthListening to your body's signals before burnout forces you to stopIf you've ever pushed through exhaustion because you felt like you had no choice — this one is for you.

    Self-Care Is Not Selfish

    In this episode of I'm Speaking...with Elizabeth West, we're talking about something women struggle with constantly — the guilt of taking care of yourself. Self-care is not selfish. But why does it feel that way so often? If you've ever felt guilty for wanting alone time, for saying no, or for simply choosing to recharge — this episode is for you. We talk about: Why women feel guilty for prioritizing their own needsHow self-care takes many forms — reading, walking, journaling, enjoying a sunriseWhy you truly cannot pour from an empty cupThe assumptions we make about what others think when we choose ourselvesWhy saying yes to everyone else means saying no to yourself"When you say yes to someone else, you say no to yourself." --Tonya Dalton Self-care isn't a luxury. It's a necessity.

    Rest is a Part of the Work

    In this episode of I'm Speaking...with Elizabeth West, we're revisiting one of the most important conversations I've ever had — with myself. Rest. It's not lazy. It's not optional. It's not something you earn after you've done enough. For women who are used to giving everything to everyone else — rest feels radical. Even selfish. But what if rest was actually the most productive thing you could do for your life, your relationships, and your self-love practice? In this episode we talk about: Why societal pressure makes women glorify overworkingThe real cost of ignoring your body's need for restHow rest is directly connected to self-worth and self-loveSetting boundaries around your energy as a womanWhy slowing down is sometimes the fastest path forwardThis episode originally aired and is being brought back because this message never gets old — and honestly? I needed to hear it again myself. If you're a highly sensitive woman, an empath, or simply someone who has been running on empty — this one is for you. 🎙️ Listen now and then ask yourself: when did you last truly rest?

    Ep 172 "Am I Creating My Own Stress?"

    Hello lovelies! Thanks for listening (and reading!) Elizabeth West discusses the concept of self-imposed stress, particularly in high-achieving women. She notes that societal conditioning from birth often leads women to strive for perfectionism, which can create unnecessary stress. Elizabeth shares personal experiences, such as setting self-imposed deadlines, and acknowledges the additional stressors faced by women of color. She emphasizes the importance of questioning whether one's stress is self-created or externally imposed. Elizabeth concludes by inviting listeners to sign up for her "come alive" calls, which offer mentoring, encouragement, and ideation, aiming to help individuals reduce self-created stress.
